1 answer

To find the total volume of \(1.5 \times 10^6\) sugar cubes, we can multiply the volume of a single sugar cube (4.9 ml) by the number of sugar cubes.

  1. Volume of one sugar cube: 4.9 ml
  2. Number of sugar cubes: \(1.5 \times 10^6\)

Now, let's calculate:

\[ \text{Total volume} = \text{Number of cubes} \times \text{Volume of one cube} \] \[ \text{Total volume} = (1.5 \times 10^6) \times 4.9 \]

Calculating \(1.5 \times 4.9\):

\[ 1.5 \times 4.9 = 7.35 \]

Next, we take into account the power of 10:

\[ \text{Total volume} = 7.35 \times 10^6 \text{ ml} \]

So, the total volume is \(7.35 \times 10^6\) ml.

Thus, the correct response is:

7.35×10^6 ml
